If they support a rent increase, you could look into raising your rents by that amount to offset the cost.

Or we gradually perform high-quality updates for a live-in flip, then roll the equity into a new home.Regarding rental income, we aim to boost income, lower our effective tax rate by generating more low tax-drag income with rental income (since there’s not much we can do to lower out W2 tax bills) and have retirement cash flow.To compare the financial impact over 10-20 years, we want to analyze renting versus flipping.

Some highlights of the article: - New listing increased 11.3% year over year from Jan 24 to Jan 25 - 8204 homes listed for sale in Feb by 32.7% over the year - Highest showings are Matthews, Huntersville, Waxhaw, Charlotte and ConcordEven with inventory increasing, levels are still under 3 months indicating its still a seller's market.   

I realize alot of investors have absolutely no asset protection ie LLCs for their properties and have been told by a couple of attorneys that im over thinking and perhaps paranoid of being sued, california as well as the entire US is known for excessive litigation.

Your experience is valuable, and starting with rentals and BRRRR is a smart move.You’re already on the right track by using tools like Redfin and Zillow.

By the end of year 2 you can get bank financing.
